Today, my boyfriend of a year broke up with me. All because I’m thinking of moving to the UK next year to study, and apparently, a girl he’s been thinking about for a week is a better option. FML

Today, my long-distance boyfriend of 3 years uttered the heartbreaking words, “I met this girl here in my hometown and she’s really great and we fell in love with each other, I can’t do this anymore. We’re over.” I was planning on moving to his town after graduation this year. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, claiming moving in was a bad idea and he is the type who needs his privacy. It was his idea to move in, he had to convince me. Now we are stuck, under lease together for the next 6 months. FML

Today, my long-distance boyfriend of 2 years left me for another girl he’s known for 3 months, just because she’s closer. Never mind that I was the one who remained faithful to him for 2 long years, got him through the deaths of his parents, gave him money when he fell on hard times, among other things. FML

The old "It's not you, it's me"

By WhoopsIDidItAgain - 14/07/2022 01:00 - United States - Fremont

Today, my boyfriend of 3 months decided to end our long-distance relationship out of the blue, because he "lost interest" and "our families don't approve" and "you deserve better than me" and "I'm holding you back." He took my heart and shattered against the wall. FML

You can't make someone who doesn't want to be with you stay, so let that other girl be a " better option", because you should never be an option in the first place.

If it’s any consolation, I’ve studied in the UK and I highly recommend it. Boyfriends are a dime a dozen. Experiences are more important.

She's staying local, which is one letter off from loyal. But I'm sorry, that sucks.

Well. He rather escaped before you could have done it. Sorry, he’s not the right one for what you imagined.

It might be for the best. Some people can’t handle long distance relationship.

End of the day you are about to move halfway around the world (and the U.K. is no longer the best option of places to study) so that girl may actually be a better option for him as sadly long distance relationships rarely work.
